Breakfast at our favourite wanton mee at Keat Hong. Seems like the standard has dropped cause the noodle is not so Q as before. The business is also not so good as compared to last time.

Kids spend the whole day revising for their exam. 1 more week and we are free from all this at least for another 2 months.

Our home cooked lunch. Everything is cooked by Kennie except for the chicken wings. Looked yummy, right?

Fried Chicken marinated with ginger, chilli, oyster sauce, chilli sauce, dark soya sauce and sesame oil
Stew Roast Duck with Salted Vege

Don't know what is this called but we named it the brother of the Ladies Finger

Shark Fin Melon Soup

I needed some Endorphins after scolding the kids the whole day. & what do I need? Chocolate ice cream!! I think it works on me cause I felt happy and more relaxed after eating chocolate.

Found another home brand ice cream. Tucked at a quiet corner at 40 Holland Grove Road, Henry Park Apartments, there's this newly opened ice cream shop called Ice Cream Kingdom. Isn't the name cool? Ice Cream Kingdom, a kingdom filled with ice cream (that's my interpretaion).

The lady boss's customer service is very good. She was very patience with us though we keep trying the different flavours and her face is always smiling. She even offered to take picture of us and give us waffle for Free. She's not selling waffle at this moment but she offered her own waffle to us knowing that we wanted to order it.

The flavours are quite limited as compared to older brands like Dailyscoop and U.D.D.E.R.S but I believe they will expand their menu in no time.

Though the flavours are quite limited, their ice cream is very nice. Kennie and I liked their Sticky Chewy Chocolate most as the choc is very rich and thick, and it's not so sweet.

Can't remember the name. Just remember that it's some banana with ????
Cookies and Cream
Sticky Chewy Chocolate

Finally have a chance to take a breather today. Clearing the Deepavali off and Kennie was not working too. Didn't go anywhere. Just relaxing and slacking at home. But calls and SMSes from office keep coming in. Sian.

Mum called and told me that she couldn't contact Uncle Huat. She's so worried as he will normally call her if he's working overtime. We tried to call him several times but he didn't pick up. Thought something bad hapen to him. Finally managed to contact him. He's working overtime and has put his phone to silence mode. #$%^. IMO, I felt that everyone should be contactable at all time. It will make your loved one worried if they can't contact you.

Will be going to KL for a short getaway during Hari Raya Haji and staying at Hotel Equatorial. Will be driving there, just hope we wont' lost our away cause the traffic is much more complicated than Malacca. Will just be a makan trip and maybe getting some clothes for CNY if it's cheaper.

Breakfast at Blk 44 Holland Drive Market.

Blanco Court Kway Chap

Having craving for kway chap so surfed the net and found this place. Heard that it's from the famous Blanco Court Kway Chap that was shifted here a few years back. Not sure if it's a spin off from the original one cause a search in the net and you will find a few more stalls claiming they are the original one e..g Garden Street Kway Chap at Serangoon Gardens Food Centre and To-Ricos Kway Chap at Old Airport Rd Food Centre. So which is the original one? Who cares, as long as their food is nice.

I give a thumbs up for this stall. The braising sauce was good, the kway was smooth and the innards were stewed very well, relatively tender




We realised that the kway chap stall that is a few stalls away from Blanco Kway Chap attracts more customers. So we decided to give it a try as well.

Verdict: Not very nice. The innards have a very weird taste, maybe it's not cleaned properly and thus explains the weird taste. The cinnamon taste in the sauce is too strong. But how come it has come customers? Maybe because it's cheaper. Blanco Kway Chap only gave me 1 egg and no salted vege for a 2 person serving but this stall give me 1 egg and salted vege for a 1 person serving.




Went to Taka for their Hokkaido food fair after Veona's tuition. The brochure that we received from Taka looks so tempting with delicious looking Bento Set, Ramen, etc. But was disppointed to see that the food fair is relatively small with only a few stalls. Food was quite ex, Bento Set and Ramen cost around $20. Might as well eat at a restaurant for this price tag. The food don't seems fresh too.

The only thing that we bought but really cmi.

Fried Sotong. $6 per pack
Fried Salomon. $5 per pack

Since we didn't have enough of Jap food at the fair, we ended at Tampopo. The original stall at Liang Court tasted much better and the service here is also not very good. Maybe because there are too many trainees here and they look so blur. They do not even know how to greet the customers and they looked so gloomy.

Our breakfast - Abalone porridge cooked with dried scallop

A boring day. Spend the whole day revising with the kids. Hehe.. but I was so tired that I dozed off. In the end, slept for almost 3hours. Shioked. Felt fully recharged.

Our dinner at Ayer Rajah Food Centre. This food centre is divided into 2 parts. 1 part selling chinese food and another selling Muslim food. Initially thought the hawker centre only cater for day crowd but I was wrong cause the place is even more crowded during night time.

Mee Kuah. Have not eaten it for almost 2 decades. Mee kuah is an Indian noodle dish that is characterised by its red gravy made from chilli paste, tomato puree and food colouring and is served with cabbage, peas, potato and a fried egg. But the Mee Kuah that this stall served really CMI cause they put in mutton. The taste is too much for me.

Bee Hoon Goreng. Kennie actually suggested coming here for dinner because of their Bee Hoon Goreng

Fish & Chip from a chinese stall, very cheap. Only $3.50. Really CMI cause the oil they use is very dirty. The whole fish is covered by black particles. Those who want to die early, pls eat it often cause you will definitely get cancer.

Very nice Garouper Penyet. Freshly fried and it's very crispy. Only $4.50 including rice.
It's ice cream time again. Back to Dailyscoop at Sunset Way after we went missing in action for quite sometime. As usual, the place is super crowded. Just found another 2 ice cream shop in west side. Will try and give my review soon.

Most of my colleagues are on off today except for my office. So busy. Nothing seems to go smoothly recently . Encountered many hidcups in my work. Though the given tasks are still completed but I think it's very unhealthy. It must be due to some fengshui problems. Maybe I should buy some crystals to place at my workplace or maybe I should do some charity work to improve my luck...

Our breakfast at Commonwealth Crescent Food Centre. This is our first time here. My objective is to try the food at all the Hawker Centre in Singapore as Hawker Centre is well known for nice and cheap food.

Not knowing what to eat so we went to the one with the most customers, Raw fish and porridge. It turned out to be a very disappointing experience. The service sucks big time. Can't stand the helper's black face. Think he must be the boss's son. The raw fish really cmi. Not cold, too many bones and not tasty at all. First and the last time that I will patronise his stall.

Century Egg porridge. Lousy presentation skill . The egg was cut into very big pieces. Might as well don't cut.

The carrot is very nice. Very soft and fragrant but a bit saltish though.

Veona went for tuition at British Council and we did our usual stuff. She will not continue the tuition next year. Can't see any improvement. A waste of money and time. Normally reached home around 3, more than half a day is gone. She would also be too tired to revise her work.

Our lunch at Zion Road Hawker. Nice Fried Kway Teow with cockles. A must have when we are here. Luckily the queue is very short today.

Another stall with not so nice food but with attitude. What is wrong with our culture?

Our homecooked dinner. It's nice to have homecooked food cause we can cook what we like to eat but there's a lot of work to be done & I hate the washing part.

This is 1 of our favourite food though not many people like it because of the taste. It's bit bitter and has a raw vege taste. We felt that it tasted heavenly especially when it's cooked with belacan chili. It's also believed to cleanse the kidney. Beware.. there's a lot of tiny worm hidden inside it. Have to slice it into half to make sure that there's no worm.
Fried fish with Assam seeds
Stir fried beef
A very simple dish. Toufu with dark soya sauce and fried shallots but it's very nice

Happy Deepavali to all Hindu.

Woke up early today to go to the newly renovated Tekka Market hoping to buy some live crabs. Couldn't find the stall that we patronised previously as the layout of the market changed after renovation. There's only 1 shop selling crabs and the size of the crabs look miserable.

After marketing, went back home cause kids have to revise for their exam. So boring. No shopping for the next few weeks.

Our homecooked dinner.

Fried Beef with Baby Kai Lan

Chilli Fish

Claim and Prawn Soup.

After diiner, meet up with Mum and went to U.d.d.e.r.s for ice cream. Time to destress after a day of shouting and scolding.

Wa... Such a big spoonful of Mao Shan Wang ice cream

A belated bday treat to Karin at Ju Shin Jung Charcoal Korean BBQ which is located just opposite Haw Par Villa.

Went to fetch Lucas and Karin at her house. An exciting experience as we were actually avoiding someone. Very frightening cause we were worried that he might be spying on us. Sweat.

Now to start my review on this restaurant. Was craving for some BBQ food so decided to come here since I have heard great review about this place but has never had a chance to try it. Ambience looks ok with the corner of the restaurant surrounded with Korean/Japanese style sitting arrangement. Was shocked to see the price of the menu as a portion of wagyu beef for person cost $50+. Actually wanted to u-turn and walk out.

After ordering the main dishes of beef, chicken and pork, the staff brings on a large range of korean side dishes which consisted of tofu, yummy kimchi, seaweed soup, different types of vege, lotus root and the list goes on and on. Not forgetting as well is the long plate of lettuce and other vege to wrap with the BBQ meat. Is this call fusion? The combination of healthy and unhealthy food. Haha

We do not need to lay a finger to BBQ as the staffs actually helped us to BBQ.

This is definitely a place to come for beef lover as they have all types of beef, cut and marinated for BBQing. But the price is at a higher side. There's also cheap set lunch served during weekday.

The queue is still very long even after we finished

Menu for BBQ item

Plain water and Barley Tea. The Barley Tea is very nice. Just the right drinks to quench our thirst after eating the heaty food

Menthol sweets before dinner?

Hehe... it's actually a capsule tissues which requires you to pour water on it, to turn into normal wet paper towels..
A playhouse for you to dump your kids before the food comes




Side dishes. Btw, it's free flow.
Marinade Beef Rib. Too sweet to our liking
Wagyu Beef. Nice Nice!!!
Marinade Chicken.
Pork Collar. It's suppose to be their signature dish but after eating Wagyu Beef, we actually felt that the meat is too tough and dry.


Pumpkin soup.
Dipping sauces

My Wagyu beef wrapped with lettuce and kimchi
Forget what it's call. Some Korean spicy seafood soup I think

After a filling dinner, our quest for dessert started. There's always room for dessert. Tucked at a ulu corner at 10 Raeburn Park, Marketing Institute of Singapore(former Gan Eng Seng School) , there's this ice cream shop. Initially we thought we might have come to the wrong place as it's so ulu with no human traffic. Not wanting to pay for the parking fee, we parked our car outside the school and walked in. My first thought was even if the ice cream shop is there, it should be closed. Maybe it's catered for the students in the school. Was told that it's still open by the security and we let out a sigh of relief. My second thought came to mind, it must be something good or it won't be opened at such timing (around 8+pm)at such ulu place. Was disappointed to see that there's not even a single customer but since we came so far, we decided to try it. But to our surprise, a row of tables was reserved. hmmm.. so there's a possibility that it's good afterall.

After checking out the menu, it seems that seventh heaven is not like the normal ice cream shop. It targets more towards the mature market as there's alcohol content in most of their flavours.

Sad to say, we do not have enough cash with us(only $20+) and credit card is accepted only for $50 and above so we only ordered 3 scoops of ice cream. As for whether it's good or not? IMO, it's just so so only, maybe because we didn't ordered the main dessert. Will be back for more ice cream and dessert.
